This is a link to unroot if I'm not mistaken here.
I think you will need to use the SEARCH function on how to properly unroot your EVO with the specs of your phone

What do you mean with the specs of my phone sorry guys I'm a total noob at this

Hardware and hboot versions...
You can get your hardware at: menu-settings-about phone...
To get your hboot version hold the volume button down while powering up....it will say it at the top....then choose fastboot and then reboot to get out of that....if you choose the wrong thing you can always pull your battery

Well here's the thing im running 2.2 already because I recently bought my evo ......wen I tried the guide on here it says tht adb doesn't exist and I don't have adb drivers on my evo

The Q&A Forum is more suited for this.
Thread moved to Q&A.
How about you give us some details about your phone and what you have tried? What software version are you running? Clearly you haven't tried every method because the Evo is rootable.
Unrevoked 3 will work I used it day before yesterday its really easy

you have to get the right drivers for adb to wrk also u need to install htc sync then uninstall it after that follow directions on post on how to root

I'm rooted and I have that exact version. I used unrevoked 3 to root my EVO.

I have the same evo got it like a week ago I used the hboot s-off guide under android development but only problem I had with that program was that I couldnt access recovery so then I used unrevoked to flash clockworkmod revovery do this at your own rish though I messed my first evo up by just using unrevoked camera wouldnt work im 14 I think you will be able to figure out how to use the hboot guide but when you flash a rom make sure its a 3.30.651.3 other wise you camera wont work im using OmegeEvo v1.1 by racism

Where do u get unrevoked 3 at? Do i get that from the market and will it brick my phone? Can i use any rin with it?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
do not use unrevoked it will permanently curropt your radio. unrevokied 3 is now out of date, thanks to htc's latest security update. use an alternative method if you happen to have a mac, i have a very nice 2 or 3 command root kit for you... testers wanted
So u cant use unrevoked 3? I do not have a mac i have a pc. I really want root mine. Im coming from the hero

I did not have any problems rooting my EVO using Unrevoked3. I followed the simple instructions and the process was painless. Before getting my EVO, I rooted my Droid Incredible using Unrevoked3. As for it being outdated as stated by someone else, I'm unaware of it. Check out the second link above and read for yourself. Happy Thanksgiving.

unrevoked does not work on any 3.30 evo software because of the new hboot security. it will not gain root, just corrupt the radio.

P36img

Cab someone please send the download? Thank you. I have searched for it
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
What file exactly
sent from my HTC evolution running a freshly baked gingerbread with the 4gs in it
Uh.....what exactly are you trying to do? PC36IMG.zip is the name given to files that we flash via HBoot. The contents of that zip file can be a vast number of things that change various objects of the phone. Post your question, what you're trying to do, etc. so that we can give you the proper links/files.
Otherwise you may be looking for a PC36IMG.zip that installs a new recovery and instead get one that completely unroots your phone and gives you S-on. So we need more details into what you are looking for.
I need the one that unroots the phone please

Still need to be more specific.
You need an RUU to match your bootloader version, so that is needed.

+1
Check what bootloader you have on your phone.
1. Turn phone COMPLETELY off
2. Press and hold volume down button while pressing the power button
3. A white screen will pop. This is your HBoot.
4. At the top it will tell you what version of Hboot you have. (i.e. 2.15.0001, 2.16.0001, etc.)
5. Take that number and post it in this thread so we can give you a file that will successfully flash to your phone.
2.15.00.07.28. Thanks

need help rooting please!!

so i just went threw and attempted to room my evo 4g with unrevoked says failed due to to new of firmware? need help please
I'm guessing that you have a newer or updated evo 4g that is running Gingerbread 2.3.3. Unrevoked won't get you rooted. You need to use Revolutionary to root. There are many threads on how to do it. It's very easy and only takes 5 minutes.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
ok thanks basicly same process?
Idk I've never used Unrevoked. All you do is go to their website, put in your phones serial number to get a beta Key. Install their program, extract their program, plug your phone in to computer, run the program, type in the beta Key exactly as it is, and let it do its thing and bam you're rooted.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Make sure you have debugging checked

Also makes sure your phone has a good charge on the battery. Rooting through Revolutionary is very simple but find a thread that explains it and follow those steps exactly.

I just used the revolutionary.io method
It is very simple if you just follow the tutorial

It's not hard. Just follow the "Guide Below for v2.3.3 builds 4.24/4.53/4.54 softwares to ROOT and unROOT revolutionary method" on his page. You will just need to run 2 PC36IMG.zip files from the SD card.
You don't need RECOVERY.
